    lcohol is part of the usual diet of millions of individuals worldwide. However, not all individuals who drink alcohol experience the same effects, nor will everyone develop an alcohol use disorder. Here we propose that the intestinal microbiota (IMB) helps explain the different consumption patterns of alcohol among individuals. 507 humans participated in this study and alcohol consumption and IMB composition were analyzed. On the other hand, in 80 adult male Wistar rats, behavioral tests, alcohol intoxication, fecal transplantation, administration of antibiotics and collection of fecal samples were performed. For identification and relative quantification of bacterial taxa was used the bacterial 16 S ribosomal RNA gene. In humans, we found that heavy episodic drinking is associated with a specific stool type phenotype (type 1, according to Bristol Stool Scale; p < 0.05) and with an increase in the abundance of Actinobacteria (p < 0.05). Next, using rats, we demonstrate that the transfer of IMB from alcohol-intoxicated animals causes an increase in voluntary alcohol consumption in transplant-recipient animals (p < 0.001). The relative quantification data indicate that the genus Porphyromonas could be associated with the effect on voluntary alcohol consumption. We also show that gut microbiota depletion by antibiotics administration causes a reduction in alcohol consumption (p < 0.001) and altered the relative abundance of relevant phyla such as Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes or Cyanobacteria (p < 0.05), among others. Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate (FDR) correction was performed for multiple comparisons. These studies reveal some of the consequences of alcohol on the IMB and provide evidence that manipulation of IMB may alter voluntary alcohol consumption.

    Associations between experimental substance use, FAAH-gene variations, impulsivity and sensation seeking
    (PSICOTHEMA, 2019) Huertas Rodríguez, Evelio; López Moreno, José Antonio; Fernández, Vanessa; Echeverry Alzate, Víctor; Buhler, Kora Mareen Katharina
    Background: Experimental substance use among young people is related to individual factors including personality traits such as impulsivity and sensation seeking, and genetic variations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) gene. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between these three sets of variables. Methods: Volunteer undergraduate students (N = 861, 76% female, M = 20.7 years) completed an ad hoc questionnaire on variables related to their consumption of alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, synthetic drugs and cocaine. In addition, 591 of them completed the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11 (BIS-11) and the Sensation Seeking Scale-V (SSS-V). All participants were genotyped in FAAH C385A SNP and its proxy variant rs12075550. Results: Consistent with previous data, both impulsivity and sensation seeking were associated with most of the variables related to experimental substance use. In addition, we found the first evidence of an association between the rs12075550 SNP and some of these consumption phenotypes. However, no significant association was found between either of the two SNPs and impulsivity or sensation seeking. Conclusions: The results highlight the importance of considering both personality and genetic differences, together with contextual factors, in the analysis of substance use

    Flipped learning (FL) en la educación universitaria
    (2018) Baron Vioque, Susana; Huertas Rodríguez, Evelio; Vicente Pérez, Francisco de; Manzanero, Antonio L.; Cabezas González, María Almudena; Palomo Seldas, Rubén; Díaz Berciano, Cristina; González Almendros, José Luis
    El objetivo general del presente proyecto de innovación educativa consiste en comparar en varios parámetros dos modelos metodológicos en la docencia: Flipped learning (FL) vs metodología tradicional (T). Flipped learning (FL), o aprendizaje inverso, está basado en la transferencia de los procesos de aprendizaje fuera del aula, empleando y dirigiendo el tiempo de docencia directa dentro del aula a favorecer otros procesos de adquisición y práctica de conocimientos. Implica el diseño de tareas previas al tiempo en aula. en el presente proyecto,se ha observado una mayor preferencia por parte de los estudiantes por el FL, aunquelos resultados académicos no difieren significativamente a favor de ninguna de ellas, ni en la valoración del profesorado, que es positivo para ambas metodologías.

    Adult-onset hypothyroidism increases ethanol consumption
    (Psychopharmacology, 2019) Echeverry-Alzate, Victor; Buhler, Kora Mareen Katharina; Calleja Conde, Javier; Huertas Rodríguez, Evelio; Maldonado, Rafael; Rodríguez De Fonseca, Fernando Antonio; Santiago, Catalina; Gómez-Gallego, Santiago; Santos Montes, Gregorio Ángel; Giné Domínguez, Elena; López Moreno, José Antonio
    Rationale Only in Europe it can be estimated that more than 20 million of people would be affected by hypothyroidism in some moment of their life. Given that ethanol consumption is so frequent, it would be reasonable to ask what the consequences of ethanol consumption in those individuals affected by hypothyroidism are. Objectives To study the interaction between hypothyroidism and ethanol consumption. Methods We study ethanol consumption in a rat model of methyl-mercaptoimidazole-induced-adult-onset hypothyroidism and thyroid T4/T3 hormone supplementation. Also, we studied the effects of ethanol on motor activity, memory, and anxiety. Results We found that hypothyroidism increased the voluntary ethanol consumption and that this was enhanced by thyroid hormone supplementation. Hypothyroidism was associated with motor hyperactivity which was prevented either by T4/T3 supplementation or ethanol. The relationship between hypothyroidism, ethanol, and anxiety was more complex. In an anxiogenic context, hypothyroidism and T4/T3 supplementation would increase immobility, an anxiety-like behavior, while in a less anxiogenic context would decrease rearing, a behavior related to anxiety. Regarding memory, acute ethanol administration did not alter episodic-like memory in hypothyroid rats. Gene expression of enzymes involved in the metabolism of ethanol, i.e., Adh1 and Aldh2, were altered by hypothyroidism and T4/T3 supplementation. Conclusions Our results suggest that hypothyroid patients would need personalized attention in terms of ethanol consumption. In addition, they point that it would be useful to embrace the thyroid axis in the study of ethanol addiction, including as a possible therapeutic target for the treatment of alcoholism and its comorbid disorders

    The genetics of self-reported trait impulsivity: Contribution of catecholaminergic gene variants in European ancestry individuals
    (Personality and Individual Differences, 2022) Bühler, Kora Mareen; Rincón Pérez, Irene; Calleja Conde, Javier; Albert, Jacobo; Hinojosa Poveda, José Antonio; Giné Domínguez, Elena; Echeverry lzate, Víctor; López Moreno, José Antonio; Huertas Rodríguez, Evelio
    Increased trait impulsivity is a core element in several mental disorders. Given the durable and consistent nature of trait impulsivity, studies have explored its relation to stable biological measures. Variation in catecholaminergic neurotransmission by genetic variants could be one of these biological substrates. Here, 905 participants of European-ancestry completed the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale–11 and were genotyped in three single nucleotide polymorphisms related to catecholaminergic neurotransmission: the DRD2/ ANKK Taq1A, the C957T DRD2 and the Val158Met of the COMT gene. We found significant main effects of Val158Met and C957T on BIS-11 score. Also, interactions with gender were significant in both SNPs with a tendency to slightly different genotype and allele associations with the BIStotal score between male and female participants. Whereas in females, higher impulsivity scores were obtained by participants with the Val158Met heterozygous genotype (Met/Val), data indicate a trend towards a higher impulsivity score in male Val-allele carriers. In the case of C957T, only a tentative association between male Tallele carriers and higher impulsivity scores in comparison to CC genotype carriers could be established. No significant associations were found between BIS-11 and Taq1A. We provide further evidence for a gender-specific implication of Val158Met and C957T in trait impulsivity.
